Sony Vaio Tower Logo Flashing and Beeping!

Ive got a Vaio PCV-2228 and it has worked like a dream for over 3 years. Its only recently that the tower starts to beep. First it was every now and then and now it just constantly emits this high pitch whenever the computer is on! The logo on the front of the tower (under the CD drives) also flashes at the same time! Ive looked everywhere for an answer to get rid of the noise but with no such luck!

download and install everest, google it...., and check your tempatures by going to computer then sensor, after its installed, check your temps, post them here, and then we will see if its overheating, if its not then you should reformat and install windows again, if the problem consists, buy a new hdd.

i had exactly the same problem and same pc,i reinstalled windows and while i was reinstalling that it was still bleeping,then eventually the motherboard went,so if u want a solution id buy a new pc mate,sonys are not very good,a motherboard will proably cost you as much as a new decent computer,but thats my advice and thats wat i did when my motherboard eventually went.

i know this has been a while but mine has done the same thing . it took me a while to sort it out but it was the procesor full of fluff aand dust. u need to give it a good blow and it will start to come out.. totaly down to over heating.
